He adâ€" mitted that the curve was a dangerous one and required steady running. \__Brampton despatch: Although the eviâ€" | desce adduced at the Assizes here toâ€" f day in the trial of George Hodge and | Matthew Grimes on the charge of crimiâ€" |\ nal negligence in connection with the | railway wreck at the Horseshoe Curve, ' near Caledon, on September 3 last, was largely of a technical character, there | w«s one pathetic incident which touched | the hearts of everyone in court. A fine | old farmer named Joseph Fergusson, | who resides almost immediately opposite | the spot where the disaster occurred, | wats caulled to give evidence,. He was an | eyeâ€"witness of the calamity, and was one | of the first on the scene; but the horriâ€" | ble spectacle of the dead, the wounded and the wreckage have unnerved him, | amd he is still suffering from the shock which the sight of the disaster had upon him. During the recital of the story of | the accident by Mr. Davidson last night, ' th» prosecuting attorney, Mr. Fergusson | completely broke down, and when called ‘ o the witness stand this morning he was | laboring under some excitement, and at | once appeal to the Judge for careful handling as a witness, saying that since } the accident he had been suffering from | nervous excitement, and in the course of ; the excitement of giving evidence he | might make answers which he did not rsully mean to. When Mr. Fergusson made his plea for fair treatment, not _ only tne Judge, but counsel for the prosâ€" ecition and for the defence, were at once sympathetic. The first few questions put by Mr. Davidson as to the speed at which the train was travelling were anâ€" swered calmly enough by the witness, but immediately counsel asked him some . details as to the spectacle after the acâ€" cident Mr. Fergusson broke into tears. Alian Van Wyck, section foreman of the track, who was a quarter of a mile from the wreck at the time of the acciâ€" dent, said that his impression of what he saw was that the train was going at . an unusual speed, though he could not say that he anticipated disaster. Hugh MacMahon, a farmer, who lives at the top of the hill where the accident | oceurred, said he was working in a field | of outs to the left of the train as it was | coming down the incline. He was standâ€" inz about three or four rods from the | truck. He had lived at the spot nearly | all his life, and when he saw the train appreaching it struck him that she was ' goimg "pretty lively." He, however, adâ€" I witted that he had seen trains going as | fast. Cy uid _ He had been over the track on his handâ€"car that morning and found it in very good condition. Mr T. Mossop, who was working with | his men in repairing culverts 570 feet | from the sceme of the disaster, said he | noticed that the train was going t.oo’ fast, and witness passed a remark to | that effect. he | _ _Bo far as could be ascertained Iaut] | night, the husband was at work all | | day.

The husâ€" band was about the same age and had lmniod her about eight years ago. There were o children. Almost from the first the woman, who was really tprettyâ€"und who tried to add to her | beauty by artificial means, _ such as switches of hair and various rouges | and toilet preparations â€"shown by pots and boxes found on her bureauâ€"atâ€" tracted the attention of other men.
